does a car really need an air conditioner?

      FRIDAY 7/19/19 8AM--I was gonna walk over to CVS after dropping the car off at the repair shop...I think I'll make that my first trip after getting the air conditioner fixed...SLIGHTLY LATER- I DID walk over to CVS and I’m picking up some meds, one of which is said to be especially important-I’ve been out of it for two or three days...
 8:46AM--"Levo" has to be taken on an empty stomach...so I have to wait until tomorrow to start taking it again...so now I can look forward to the agonizing wait to hear from the service station across the street...So it's FOUR HOURS LATER and I'm not yet in an agonized state of Mind...well, just a teeny bit...
2:49PM--so I don't have a working air conditioner? how necessary is it anyway? even if I sell off some of my Musical gear, like the Bass and digital recorder, I won't have $1400 dollars to cover the (alleged) cost of the repair...I suppose I could sell off everything and still not have $1400 dollars...
     I should feel lucky to have a car at all, right? I'll desperately try to hang onto that thought...as for Dianne helping me, that's not gonna happen--she has financial limits too...oh well...I knew it was gonna be expensive, I just hoped it wouldn't be THAT expensive...Off the top of my head, the piece of Musical equipment most vulnerable to excessive heat is the acoustic guitar, and I don't go out with it all that much...although my iPhone seems overly sensitive to extreme heat as well...
 4:34PM--I don't really feel like doing much of anything, possibly including living...but driving a car w/o a working air conditioner IS better than not having a car at all...I MUST hold onto that thought...Life goes on...so I might go ahead and do what I was gonna do when I thought I'd be driving around in an air conditioned car...the Plan was/is to go to the OTWC, for dessert if nothing else...there's an acoustic duo playing there; it might be innaresting to hear them...*I* dunno why, but Stoney might be playing with them...at the risk of sounding like a jealous asshole, what's so great about Stoney Johnstone?
   Which brings me back to: I'm I not as talented as I think I am? which is fairly talented? is it a personality thing? and again I wonder if I'm lumped in with MontCo's other "eccentrics"? Whoever they might be--Howard comes to mind, a guy named David, Sean Hardman...a lot of the Musicians I know...
   5:11PM--so I'm gonna eat dinner, shower shave and put on clean clothes and go to the OTWC...at least that's what I think I'm gonna do...the Musical group playing there starts kinda early (7:30) and that's fine with me...I could be home well before 11 o'clock...
      11:17 PM--Nope, I got home right at eleven...had an OK time...
